I'm buying my brother a carto send to him.. There a turbo 2 i seen and the guy tells me that it has a jap motor.. is there any way to tell if its true or not the motor looks like new, but i just want to make sure so i dont pay more for a car that does have a jap motor.. thanx

 

All rotarys have a jap motor,it has Hiroshima stamped on them,they were not made in the US,or do you mean J spec?

 

Sorry i mean j spec.. I have driven other stock turbo 2's and this one feels like it has more power..

 

no egr valve and no remnants of one ever being there is one way to see.. i think...

 

I did not know that Rotaries were made in Hiroshima.

So i should look for that on the housings?? I belive i seen an air pump on it ( i think thats what its called, would it have that??

 

I believe that if its a jdm engine the intercooler will say "rotary turbo" or something like that, when the usdm one says "turbo II", and yeah it wont have egr and stuff, and I believe that the intake manifold is taller, but that might only be the 89-92. If it is a jdm engine it will have a little more power.

 

Now days everyone and thier mom wants to be "JDM" you used to be able to get the JDM intercoolers on Ebay for $50.

and they are the SAME size as the US ones..
